Their staff is always incredibly courteous, and always come through when I’ve got complicated trip itineraries to work through. They always set me up at great hotels and tours that meet my budget goals, and taking the Victoria Clipper up to Victoria is a great way to travel. Clipper is really reliable and I highly recommend them. Thanks!”

“We did the package deal of Butchart Gardens, hotel and ferry for 1 night. The Clipper ship itself was great and very accommodating. The hotel booked was clean and comfortable, and the Butchart tour bus was well organized. Victoria is a charming city with great views, culture, history and plenty of parks and bike rides. We highly recommend for a weekend getaway.”
